We are glad to know that the plan
proposed by the School Commissioner at
Honea Path meets the hearty approval OF
all the teachers and school officers with
whom he has conYersed. For the special
benefit Of those who were not at the
Honea Path meeting, let US state our
purpose again; We propose, if possible,
to start a teachers library. We propose
5 70 start On q small amount Of money
contributed blythe teachers. One dollar
only: il the amount each isasked to con- con
tribute. There ara over eighty White
teachers in this county. With eighty
dollars we. can purchase neat little
library Of almost incalculable value 10

work with. They need books, they need

bny many books and papers, but by CEN
stralising and combining our forces we
may may accomplish q great deal By giving

Association is expected to contribute his

when 3 i, called upon. Remember that you
have never had such an opportunity
e offered e. you-that of contributing sLoo
and gettiI; access to the worth Of $4,000.
This is affair test Of your earnestness, so
be prepared when the Commissioners

DIED.

KELLOGG Little Ross, son of W.
J. and Susan S. Kellogg, Aug.
18th, 1887, aged Ii months and
10 days.
This is sad afilition indeed to
these parents and the five little
brothers and one sister. Little
Ross came to his death in very
peculiar way, by falling from keg
or small barrel. He was just the
age to be specially interesting and
a comfort to his.parents and broth
ers anil sisters. But we
weep not as those that have nc
hope. He has gone to be with the
redeemed and happy in heaven.
His funeral sermon was preach
ed at the home, Aug. Goth, after
which he was laid away to await the
great resurrection morn. May God
greatly bless these sorrowing ones.

In 1862 he was married to Mis-

been an invalid for many months;
Notwithstanding the care of kind
and loving friends and all that
medical skill could do for him his
decline has been gradual, marked
occasionally b, those fattering
prospects of recovery SO charac-

tent in the humble walks of life:
he spent the greater part of his
life on the farm, where with herds
and focks finding pleasure IN

right in principle, honest with his
fellow man, he enjoyed the respect
and esteem of all who knew him.
Recognizing that the end would
come soon; he called his family to
him and calmly expressed his de-
sire and gave them fatherly coun-
Isel. As the mind reverted to the
past and as the sunshine and sha.
ldows of his life fitted before his
minds eye, many whom he had
known in former days were kindly
remembered. Especially did he
